2401 OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY January 30, 1981 REF: 5133 ND Dear General Revenue Sharing Recipient: The data of record in the Office of Revenue Sharing for your government for Entitlement Period 12 (October 1, 1980 - September 30, 1981) are provided on the enclosed ORS Form 3233. These data were used to compute the initial Twelfth Period allocation amount provided on the form, which will be reflected in your govern~nent's quarterly general revenue sharing payments beginning January 8, 1981. Data Improvement Profzram This notice is to provide an opportunity for your government to verify its general revenue sharing (GRS) data for Entitlement Period 12. Due to the timing of the renewal of the GRS Program at the end of the extended session of Congress, it was not possible to conduct the annual Data Improvement Program of the Office of Revenue Sharing prior to the compu- tation of the initial allocation of funds for Entitlement Period 12, as has been the practice in previous, periods. However, all data revisions resulting from this Data Improvement Program and from the ongoing review procedures of the Bureau of the Census will be' incorporated into the official Entitlement Period 12 Master File and will be used in determining a government's final allocation for Entitlement Period 12 which will be computed in June 1981. Adjustments which result from differences between the initial and final allocation amounts will be reflected in payments for Entitlement Period 13 which begin in January 1982. The definitions of the data elements, and their effective dates, are containe~ in the enclosed booklet. If you believe there are errors in these data, considering these definitions and dates, please enter your proposed corrections in the spaces provided on the enclosed form and return it, together with supporting documentation (Census Bureau certifications, audit reports, etc.,) to serve as a basis for review of the data. Ail data correction proposals should be received by this Office by March 2, 1981 to allow sufficient review time prior to the final allocation of Entitlement Period 12 funds. Upon receipt of each data correction proposal, the Office of Revenue Sharing, the Bureau of the Census, and other appropriate agencies will substantiate or correct the data and this Office will advise the government making such proposal of the results of this review. As provided for in the Amendments to the Revenue Sharing Act, the data for Entitlement Period 12 is open to challenge until September 30, 1982, one year after the end of the period.
